New for 2011, the LT42AF is the replacement for the venerable LT42T and features three major improvements over the earlier model. First is the valve. The "Infinity" thayer axial flow (AF) valve on this model is unique in that it employs an upper and lower roller bearing assembly to support the valve core. These bearings are similar to those used in precision machine and automotive applications. They support and align the valve core which eliminates surface wear and allows for an air-tight seal, two issues that have been problematic in the axial flow valve design since it first appeared in the 1980's. This lightning fast valve is complimented with a new miniball valve linkage which makes for a design that's comfortable, fast, tight and responsive. Second is the handslide. Bach has adopted a new state of the art slide manufacturing process that employs a pre-polishing stage. The result is a slide that is truely world class. Gone are the days of hiss and scratch. The new slides are fast, even and nearly silent. And as a bonus, the slide lock has been improved for worry free operation. Third is a new fixture-mounted construction process. This reults not only in improved alignment of parts, but also better resonance and thus improved sound. General features include:

• 8.5" one-piece hand-hammered bell. A one-piece bell generally gives a better response over two-piece designs due to the lack of the additional solder joint at the bell flare.
• Silver plated yellow brass bell material. Though subject to debate, yellow brass is often thought to make for better projection with more clarity than red, rose or gold brass. Silver plating further makes the instrument have a more brilliant/bright tone and as such is rarely employed in classical music situations due to its effect on tone.
• Infinity Axial Flow Valve. The Bach Infinity valve provides for an uninterrupted airflow through or past the F attachment. Conical shaped, and rotating about its axis on precision roller bearings, the valve provides a straight-through air path with no resistance whatsoever. Axial Flow valves make the horn especially open and free-blowing, allow the F attachment notes to match the open horn in both tone and feel, and makes for a fuller low register.
• Lightweight Nickel outer slide tubes. Nickel outer tubes are lighter yet much harder than standard brass tubes. The result is a slide that is especially easy to work and at the same time very durable. Nickel slides are thought by some to produce a slightly lighter, brighter sound, though this is subject to great debate.
• Seamless chrome-plated nickel silver inner slide tubes. The lack of a seam helps make the inner tubes perfectly round—they don't flatten or bulge at the seam. This, together with the polished nickel finish makes the action quick, light and quiet.
• Nickel silver slide handgrips. Lacquered nickel grips resist corrosion far better than brass grips and also prevent staining of your skin.
• Tubular nickel silver body braces. Nickel braces are lightweight and tough, reducing weight and increasing body integrity.
• Bach 6.5A mouthpiece. The 6.5A is a decent mouthpiece for this horn. It can be swapped for a 5G (a better match for experienced players) or any other in-stock Bach mouthpiece of similar cost at no additional charge.
• Fabric covered wood shell case. Bach's case is protective and durable, though a little on the large side. It has a zipper enclosure with a velcro flap. A large outside zippered pocket is convenient for music storage.
• Metal cleaning rod. Standard with every Bach Strad trombone. You're going to need one anyway, and this saves you the expense later on.

• Motivation through musical interest
  If students like a piece, they are more likely to spend extra time polishing it.
• Ideas are linked and reinforced
  After a page helping students develop D in alternate 4th, for example, the next page presents two short pieces in E-flat major.
• Pieces of reasonable length
  In a lesson, time is precious. Get to the point quickly using short exercises and half-page etudes.
• A greater variety of key signatures
  Don't get stuck in that B-flat / E-flat rut.
• Help with rhythm
  Some pages zoom in on common rhythm trouble spots, such as the deadly dotted-eighth sixteenth.
• Cross-referencing to other books
  A big time-saver in lessons! Quick, where can you find etudes that feature the D-flat major scale? Besides the two that appear in this book you'll see cross-references to: Bleger's 31 Studies #12, Hering's 40 Progressive Studies #28 & #36 and Voxman's Selected Studies, p.22
• Patterns to be memorized
  Scale and arpeggio patterns with musical shape.
• Bonus appendices focusing on special areas including:
  • Developing the legato tongue
  • Building the high range
  • Double tonguing
  • Extra scale patterns
  • Long tones and tuning exercises (including tuning over a drone)
  • Flow exercises (sing, buzz, play)

Mr. Vernon believes it is important for tenor trombonists to maintain this vulnerable register on a daily basis. Second trombone and bass trombone players constantly play in this register in ensembles. Tenor trombonists who don't work in the middle/low register will have many difficulties playing these studies. This register is a primary building block to producing a free, open and easy sound over the entire range of the instrument. 59 pages. 659550951043.
